#Kids: Mommy & Daughters Day Out

A bond between a mother and daughter is a beautiful thing, and sometimes is better expressed through actions. Here are some awesome ideas for that perfect mom-daughter date.

Drive-In Movie Night

Say bye-bye to new-age movies and hello to an old-school drive-in experience. Yes, mom’s be the cool kids for a change! This is the chance for you to school your kids about how your youth was like and, trust us, they will enjoy every moment. So, dress up in your matching onesies and get comfortable as you prepare to watch a movie in the comfort of your own car with your daughter. To find out more about this event visit the Drive.in.co Facebook page for more information.

The Horwoods Farm Family Market

Girls are always game for some retail therapy, right? Get them out of the house and head out for some fresh air at one of our favourite markets: The Horwood Farm Family Market with over 200 stalls to discover. Sometimes the simple things in life mean more than most of us think. For more information on this event visit here!

The Color Purple – The Musical

This event is more appropriate for older daughters, so if your teen is into theatre, surprise her with tickets to see The Color Purple – The Musical. Based on the moving novel by Alice Walker, this play will make you ugly-cry, laugh and leave you talking all the way home. For more information on this event click here!

Ugly Cry Night: Legends Of The Fall

Thank goodness The Bioscope introduced their Ugly Cry Nights for all of us who appreciate a good sob. And what better movie to ugly cry to than the Legends Of The Fall? Well, then, moms and daughters it’s time for you to head to Maboneng for a girl’s night. For more information on this event click here!

Spring High Tea At Palazzo

High teas are always a great idea for mom and daughter dates, where conversations flow with pinkies up in the air. Growing up, our grandmothers always made us make tea when people visited, and we didn’t understand then why people sat around chatting over tea. Now that we’re older, we understand that tea is the root of a great conversation. Let your daughters in on the secret with this special treat. Click here for more information.

Learning How To Bake With The Baking Shed

Whether it’s licking the batter bowl together or having a flour fight, baking is a great way to bond with your daughter. To inspire your child to be creative in the kitchen, consider calling The Baking Shed for some fun baking classes. This also helps with team building and getting to know each other. It’s easy, check it out here!

Paint Nite

You might be raising a young Picasso and all they need is that inspiration to find their artistic instinct. It’s never too late or too early to allow your kids to explore their artistic side, so expose them to something creative and join them in the process! Paint Nite offers private events for families and friends, so get in touch with them for an extra-special mom and daughter outing. Click here for more information.

Fun Hobbies For Mom And Daughter

A simple day out with mom can also mean staying at home in your PJs and doing something cool like scrapbooking, model building or getting stuck into some decoupage. Sound like fun? A simple date would mean going to a hobby store and getting all the things you need for your time together, and we’ve got a list of where to start: Check it!

Manis, Pedis, Hair Galore. So Cute!

All girls need a little time away to get pampered – even the young ones. There are a few salons and spas offering tween and teen packages with mom, however, our overall favourite is Life Day Spa Kids, because they also have kids party packages.

Art Jamming

To close this list off, we had to throw in Art Jamming. This is an absolute win for the kids, in our opinion. For some art motivation, you will be so happy you brought them here. For more information on their offering click here!

And we’re out ✌️…..
